Sensory-Friendly Initiative
With a mission to ensure that all members of the community have access to high-quality ballet performance regardless of their needs, NPB provides sensory-friendly performances to welcome those with extrasensory and other needs and their families.
As we have grown in our capacity and expanded our work, we feature dancers of diversability in our sensory-friendly performances through our A Chance to Dance Program.
We also work in partnership with the Lorain County Metro Parks to present inclusive dance education at French Creek Nature Center in the summer months.
Join our mailing list and select the A Chance to Dance/Sensory Friendly Initiative when signing up to stay up to date on sensory-friendly performances, registration announcements for performance opportunities, inclusive education opportunities, and more!
